Become a Friend of Great Dixter

As part of its appeal effort, The Great Dixter Trust is also launching a “Friends of Great Dixter” programme. Its aim is to secure the support of individuals who feel strongly about Great Dixter and would like to become part of its future. Each Friend will each make a donation at one of five levels of contribution, as set out below.

In return for their support, this community of Friends will enjoy:

• Preferential access to the House and Gardens
• Invitations to Friends of Great Dixter events
• A quarterly Friends of Great Dixter Newsletter

There are five levels of Friends donations. There is no difference between these levels in terms of benefit, they are simply there because some people may be in a positon to afford more than others. Please be as generous as you feel you can...

Friends make a small monthly donation over five years by deed of covenant at any one of the following levels:

a) £6 a month
b) £12 a month
c) £18 a month
d) £24 a month
e) £48 a month

To become a Friend of Great Dixter and pay by monthly covenant please email us at friends@greatdixter.co.uk and we will send you the relevant forms. Please include your full name and postal address.

If you would prefer to pay online or in one lump sum, then the levels equate as follows:

a) £360 ($640)
b) £720 ($1,280)
c) £1,080 ($1,921)
d) £1,440 ($2,560)
e) £2,880 ($5,123)

If you would like to become a Friend of Great Dixter by donating online or in one lump sum, please email us at friends@greatdixter specifying your chosen level of donation (a, b, c, d, or e). We will then send you an email within 24 hours which will include a link that will allow you to make your donation online using any major credit card or PayPal.
